I live in a new over 55 community that has an indoor senior center with pool, spa, sauna,game and social rooms, scheduled to open early summer 2007. A small group of residents have been asked to draft a set of rules and regulations for use of the center. I would be interested in seeing rules and regulations for similar centers and to know what works and what to avoid.

I was asked to be on a similar commitee last year. We had a long list of rules that were confusing. My suggestion to our commitee was this:
SAFETY FIRST then keep it "short and simple". We did that, and it's working great. Sorry I can't send a copy.
